Today I want to share with you the things I’m grateful for in 2019!
I believe gratitude is a very important asset for achieving success. The ability to be grateful for what you have, is what enables you to ultimately have more of it.
A good example is people trying to build their online presence and social media accounts, complaining about having only 400 followers.
A surefire recipe for getting to 4000, is to actually care about your 400.
Here are some of the things I’m grateful for in 2019:
- Our crazy New York month-long vacation and meeting some of my followers there, and ESPECIALLY seeing up close the impact my content has on people.
- Taking responsibility for my personal finances and being WAY more organized than in the past.
- Teaching watercolor private lessons consistently.
- Publishing 2 articles in the Leisure Painter magazine, and the really positive experience I had around that.
- Getting started with TikTok, and consistent content publishing
- My book “How to Sketch” being picked up by a Russian publishing house.
- Getting my deviated septum fixed and being able to breath fully!!!
- And some more…
I cannot stress enough how key gratitude is. It’s the thing that enables me to follow my vision clearly.
I practice it every single morning. It doesn’t have to be huge. It doesn’t have to be perfect. Practice appreciating the small things.
And let me know what you’re grateful for, in one of the following places!

It’s indeed a huge challenge, and there are only 24 hours a day.
Posting a lot of content takes a lot of time away from creating, but it’s a balance I’m personally willing to have in order to achieve my goals.
I think different people will find different sweet spots. Not everyone has to post so much.
And many artists focus on the quality of their art so much they become geniuses, which also makes every piece of content they make even more valuable (:
I think the balance may change for me in the future. I’m already taking more time for myself and creation.
I hope that answers it! Let me know if you have any other questions ^_^
